Precious Jewel
by Hank Locklin written by Roy Acuff [3/4 time]
C
Way back in the hills
F C
As a boy I was once wandered
Buried deep in her grave
D7 G7
Lies the girl that I love
C
She was called from this earth
F C
A jewel for Heaven
More precious than diamonds
G7 C
More precious than gold
A jewel here on earth
F C
And jewel in Heaven
She'll brighten the kingdom
D7 G7
Around God's great throne
C
May the angels have peace
F C
God bless her in Heaven
They've broken my heart
G7 C
And they've left me to roam
When she was sixteen
F C
We courted each other
She promised someday
D7 G7
To become my sweet wife
C
I bought her a ring
F C
To wear on her finger
The angels they called her
G7 C
To heaven one night
repeat #2
This world has it's wealth
F C
And it's trials and troubles
Mother earth holds her treasures
D7 G7
Of diamonds and gold
C
But she can't hold the soul
F C
Of one precious jewel
She's resting in peace
G7 C
In that Heavenly home
